This document is an article from The Economist titled 'American foreign policy - Why it's a theory, not a doctrine', dated March 31st. It analyzes Barack Obama's foreign policy regarding Libya, stating he repudiated an older doctrine (attributed to Colin Powell and George W. Bush's administration) which advocated for war only when vital interests are threatened, an exit strategy is clear, and overwhelming force can be applied. The article contrasts this with Obama's approach in Libya, noting that vital interests are not wholly at stake, the exit strategy (Colonel Qaddafi's departure) is unclear, and military force is strictly limited (no boots on the ground).
